Hi Jay,
Sorry for the slow reply.
Mine has a '93 serial number but the title said '95. The previous owner took off most to the decals. I completely redid the paint and bodywork (cracked hood and handle pole) So far the handle pole is holding up but I didn't beef the hood up enough because there is a hairline crack again. I recharged the gas cylinder higher too to take the load of the pole. I got hold of a set of decals but chose not to put on the front ones or the handle pole one. What have you been doing for handle poles? I haven't really done any engine mods other that mesh K&N flame arresters with the water guard covers because sometimes the original K&N paper style flame arrester would get swamped. I have a Rule 500 bilge pump too. I was thinking of trying a 16.0 impeller for better low end pull. The stock 17.0 sure rips fast top end though! Fun ski, eh?
Hey, where did your hull crack?
Cheers,
John

Hey,
I was looking through the freestyle section and ran across your post about the mtb throttle levers. Saw your viper and figured I'd ask about it. My dad and I ride a couple of these every weekend. What year is yours? All white was 93 unless you painted it. We've got 3 1995's. Any engine mods done to it? You ever have any problems with hulls cracking or handle poles? I'm on my 4th handle pole in the last two years.
